Confidence is the cornerstone of leadership. If you don’t believe in yourself, how can others believe in you?
Here are simple mental hacks to boost your confidence—be more confident in yourself!
1. Break through self-limiting beliefs.
As a child you were aware that you could conquer the world, but somewhere between childhood and adulthood, your enthusiasm and natural inclinations to dream big were squashed. Parents and teachers started imposing their own beliefs—about what you can and can’t do in life.
The best way to break through this chain is to push yourself past your self-limiting beliefs, as they aren’t doing any good to you. Expose yourself to different situations and face it the way it comes without fear of losing. The confidence builds when you decide to take an action and do it. That decides your limits. Just losing with the fear of the unknown is not the way to face life challenges. Once you start taking actions you will have confidence in yourself, you’ll be amazed with what all you can accomplish.

2. Activate Your Conscious Memory
Your brain has a built-in confirmation bias. That means it stores information that is consistent with your own beliefs, values and self-image. Your response to situations in life is triggered by this conditioning of mind and is often mechanised.
This selective memory system is a natural way to keep the brain from getting overloaded with too much information.
So to achieve success you need to change your self image. You need to send self affirmations to fight your low self-esteem, and send the information to your brain that you are ready to face the challenges and you will be confident to fight your battles and win in through. Try to gain a clear perspective and positive belief system to achieve what you want in life.
3. Self Talk.
You might feel this is crazy but trust me it really works. Self talk makes you smarter, helps you focus, clear your perspectives and improve your mental strength. The power of positive self-talk overrides many fears and helps you deal with anxiety. Positive self-talk influences your response into a positive one.
4. Positive Thinking.
Our natural negativity bias keeps us safe from danger for thousands of years. But this negativity bias can defraud your confidence and like velcro, sticks to you. Everyday tame your mind with five positive thoughts to counter every one negative thought. Let every positive thought reinforce for 20 seconds before moving to the next positive thought.
Acknowledge your emotions and don’t suppress negative ones. Label the emotions for what they truly are and move on.
